Unlimited power is pretty good. Hard to choose since so many of his lines are excellent.

The Silver · Aug 31, 2018

No option for all of them? This is outrageous, it's unfair!

Thurston Last · Aug 31, 2018

A surpise to be sure, but a welcome one.

Denamitea · Aug 31, 2018

Unlimited Power is the most memorable one and I sneak it into conversations every now and then.

I also like "Do It"

m0therzer0 · Aug 31, 2018

This poll has way too many options.

OrdinaryPrime · Aug 31, 2018

I am the Senate would be my vote. It's something I'd imagine Trump to say.

The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise. Have you guys heard of it?

Sgt. Demblant · Aug 31, 2018

"Anakin, we really are the last of us. And now I'm all out of bubble gum so why don't you say hello to my little friend?"

sanstesy · Aug 31, 2018

Ironic.

It's so this, but it's not a story the Jedi would tell you

"So, it's treason then.

Arrggghhhhh!!!!!"

Edit: you beat me, fancy gif dude.

sphagnum · Aug 31, 2018

Of course it's I am the Senate.

You didn't include any of his TCW and Rebels lines though!

Genryu · Aug 31, 2018

I will make it legal.

Starphanluke · Aug 31, 2018

How the heck are we supposed to choose the best line of one of the most quotable characters ever?!

*sigh*

Okay, fine. I'll play. I'll go with... "I am the Senate."

zeitgeist · Aug 31, 2018

Do it!

signal · Aug 31, 2018

Execute order 66

TheGummyBear · Aug 31, 2018

"What the hell is an aluminium falcon?"

Creamium · Aug 31, 2018

I voted for 'I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational' because his intonation for that line is just amazing

Mockerre · Aug 31, 2018

Now do Snoke! Oh, wait.

rashbeep · Aug 31, 2018

"good"

"dewit"

HiLife · Aug 31, 2018

Something something dark side.

He was one of the few bright spots in the prequels but his performance in Return of the Jedi was his best.

Surfinn · Aug 31, 2018

The Force

Is strong

With a-youuuu

Bremsstrahlung · Aug 31, 2018

The weak crumble, are slaughtered and are erased from history while the strong, for good or for ill, survive. The strong are respected, and alliances are made with the strong, and in the end peace is made with the strong.

Seriously, though, the treason one.

Chopchop · Aug 31, 2018

Unnnnlimited POWEeerrrRrrRRRrrRrRrrrrrrrrr

The Unsent · Aug 31, 2018

"There has been an awakening, have you felt it?"

Edit Never mind, that was the other one. :)

Travo · Aug 31, 2018

Not from a jedi

That whole mocking speech is great and the line you quoted is my favorite part of it.

Medalion · Aug 31, 2018

Every line is the best line when it comes from Ian McDiarmid's interpretations

moriquendi · Aug 31, 2018

So be it .. Jedi

Brian McDoogle · Aug 31, 2018

Surprised "Leave him or we'll never make it" isn't in the poll.

Hydeus · Aug 31, 2018

It's treason, then.
Sheev was so good.

The Unsent · Aug 31, 2018

My favourite is "Get help. You're no match for him, he's a Sith Lord." He's cheeky as fuck, I love it. :D

takriel · Aug 31, 2018

"Did you eva hya..."

"Riiiiiiiiiiise"

dangeROSS · Aug 31, 2018

Ever since I saw that: Have you ever heard about the tragedy of Darth Plaguies the wise.. Meme. It's gonna have to be that. Did you ever hear...

Jedi2016 · Aug 31, 2018

"Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?"

"So be it... Jedi."

Jar jar? It's me, Palpatine, I wanted to tell you I'm sorry for manipulating you into granting me emergency powers

"Oh, I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive."

The original troll.

Been to more than one Halloween party as 'The Senate'.

Lunar Wolf · Aug 31, 2018

In that order:

Goood, Anakin. Goooooood. Now kill him. Kill him now. : )

Are you threatening me, Mast-uh Jeh-die?

It's treason then

I am the Senate.

Do it.

CreepingFear · Aug 31, 2018

Why do you people have to turn one of the only good parts of the prequels into a meme?

What is the best line of dialogue from Darth Sidious/Sheev Palpatine?
